Photos: Massive fire destroys condo development in southwest Edmonton

A three-alarm fire devastated a condominium development under construction in southwest Edmonton at 119th St. and 21st Ave. SW on Sept. 29, 2013. Propane tanks exploded and a swath of destruction roughly two blocks by one block smouldered long after the initial call came in around 2 a.m. Although no one was injured, the development has been totally destroyed.
